They also drive innovation
Do they, though?
Scientists drive innovation, engineers drive innovation
Billionaires just throw money around
Tax billionaires until their fortune is at a max of say, 10 million dollars. Use those trillions in tax revenue to fund a wife range of non profit orgs that will fund companies to improve innovation.
Sounds like a much better solution than the current timeline
"The son of the worker, on entering life, finds no field which he may till, no machine which he may tend, no mine in which he may dig, without accepting to leave a great part of what he will produce to a master. He must sell his labour for a scant and uncertain wage. His father and his grandfather have toiled to drain this field, to build this mill, to perfect this machine. They gave to the work the full measure of their strength, and what more could they give? But their heir comes into the world poorer than the lowest savage. If he obtains leave to till the fields, it is on condition of surrendering a quarter of the produce to his master, and another quarter to the government and the middlemen. And this tax, levied upon him by the State, the capitalist, the lord of the manor, and the middleman, is always increasing; it rarely leaves him the power to improve his system of culture. If he turns to industry, he is allowed to work–though not always even that --only on condition that he yield a half or two-thirds of the product to him whom the land recognizes as the owner of the machine.
We cry shame on the feudal baron who forbade the peasant to turn a clod of earth unless he surrendered to his lord a fourth of his crop. We call those the barbarous times. But if the forms have changed, the relations have remained the same, and the worker is forced, under the name of free contract, to accept feudal obligations. For, turn where he will, he can find no better conditions. Everything has become private property, and he must accept, or die of hunger."
The Conquest of Bread
Maybe but then it should be either one of these, not just the abolishment of one.
Capitalists don’t contribute anything, they just paywall productivity and skim off the top of everyone else’s work.
Stop dick riding them
Tell me more about Zuckerberg’s innovations
I know he also wasted a lot of money (software side of metaverse), but he also put a lot of R&D into virtual reality headsets, which he will continue to develop.
You mean he bought Oculus and made it shit?
You’re saying the original Oculus is a better performing product than its modern counterpart? I don’t think you’re really saying that, so why won’t you be clear in what you’re actually saying instead of being vague and pretending you’re making such a smart and perceptive comment.
Perhaps you’re talking about his business practices or his work ethic that you don’t agree on. Say something that doesn’t sound ridiculously stupid, and in such a manner that I can ACTUALLY understand what the fuck you’re talking about.
Oculus was a pioneering VR brand. Zuck bought. Now shit.
What is shit about it
I drive more innovation at my workplace than my C suites. The only thing they can drive is a pickup truck that doesn’t get anything put into the bed.
Well, you don’t get to be a billionaire and also have principles. Everyone must bow and kiss the ring.
Bow, kiss the ring and prepare the dagger for the inevitable backstabbing.
You appear to be giving Zuck the removed too much credit here.
Zuckerberg stole facebook from three of his former classmates, and when sued paid them 65 million dollars in 2009.
So yes, he absolutely can backstab.
Trump is gathering literally the worst people in the world. And, in this case, a robot.
Lizard person, please. smh
Lizards still have a pulse.
Can we wait until all the assholes are gathered together around Trump, then quietly lock the door from the outside, turn off their internet and get on with life?
That’s an interesting way to spell “set the building on fire”
I still hope for an one way ticket to Mars on starship. These brilliant people should be the first to have that privilege.
Turn off their sewer and water too for good measure.
That would be the best reality show in the whole of the universe. How I’d love to see the drama, relationships and power dynamics that form. Who gets it in their butt first, who starts dividing the rooms, who hides the salt, etc.
always late to the party and never with an original thought.
The lizard people union are gathering to consolidate power in the White House. Pass it on.
From demagogue to whore in record time.
You must pay tribute to the glorious leader.
Zuck the removed knows he can’t just watch, right?
Gone to kiss the ring more like
“national renewal” = $$$$$$$
“I’ve already ruined 2000s hip hop, let’s see what I can do to a full country…”
He’s signing up for a piece of the action. It’s up to us to make sure that’s what he gets.
🤮
Mark’s got big plans for a 2nd genocide in Myanmar and he knows just who to call. The F-team
